From Deer Park Monastery, a practice center in the tradition of Thich Nhat Hanh

This week, we continue to share the talks given by Thich Nhat Hanh at Deer Park Monastery in October. Thay reviews the second and third of the Four Nutriments taught by the Buddha, Sense Impressions and Volition. Volition has always surprised me on the list of nutriments. How is volition something we consume? Thay explains it very well.

He shares that we often use mindless consumption and production as a way of running away from ourselves. When will we start to come back to ourselves? The time is now. It is always: now.

A big thanks this week to our newest audio editor, David Nelson! Enjoy his skillful work on this podcast!
